&lt;div class="asl-wikipage-summary"&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Hard-boiled fiction, also known as noir fiction, includes gritty, graphic crime writing with deeply conflicted characters. Often times the main character is an anti-hero, lacking conventional hero attributes. Author and professional book editor Elaine Ash is a big fan of this subgenre and has won many awards for her series of work under the pen name &amp;quot;Anonymous-9.&amp;quot; Well-known hard-boiled writers include Raymond Chandler, James M. Cain, Duane Swierczynski, and Elmore Leonard. The key to success in this subgenre, Ash says, is to find writing connections online, whether that&amp;#39;s critique partners, places to post your work, or resources. Your writing connections will eventually lead to agents and publishers, and hopefully, a publishing deal.&lt;/p&gt;
